USE INFORMATION RANCONA CTS Seed Protectant is a systemic and contact broadspectrum fungicide for seed treatment that protects against a wide variety of diseases. RANCONA CTS is effective against smuts, bunts, Fusarium, Diaporthe (Phomopsis), Rhizoctonia, Pythium and seed-borne Sclerotinia. It is also effective against seed rot fungi such as Aspergillus and Penicillium. Seed should be sound and well cured before treatment. RANCONA CTS Seed Protectant may be used in combination with a metalaxyl containing product (such as BELMONT 2.7 FS or MetaStar ST) for enhanced Pythium and Phytophthora protection. Do not use RANCONA CTS in combination with other seed treatment products unless their compatibility has been verified. Always read and follow carefully all label directions and precautions of each combination product. When using combinations of products, the most restrictive of label limitations and precautions must be followed. Do not tank mix with any pesticide that has a prohibition against tank mixing. NOTE: This product is undyed. The purchaser of this product is responsible for ensuring that all seed treated with this product are adequately colored with a suitable colorant to prevent its accidental use as food for man or feed for animals. Refer to 21CFR, Part Any colorant added to treated seed must be cleared for use under 40CFR, Part SEED TREATMENT EQUIPMENT Apply RANCONA CTS Seed Protectant with mechanical, slurry, or mist-type seed treating equipment, provided that the equipment can be calibrated to accurately and uniformly apply the product to seed. Uniform application to seed is necessary to ensure best disease protection and optimum performance. Seed should be sound and well cured before treatment. Refer to the label rates below.

3 RANCONA CTS must be diluted with water or mixed with other registered seed treatment products before use, in order to achieve good uniformity of treatment. Use a total slurry application volume of 3 to 15 fl. oz. per 100 lb. of seed. The actual slurry volume will depend on the type of treater, other seed treatment products that are used in combination, and/or seed and facility temperatures. Mix RANCONA CTS and water or other seed treatment products thoroughly into a slurry before treating seed. Recalibrate treating equipment to apply the targeted slurry volume, taking into account the total treatment and dilution water volumes. Contact your local Chemtura representative or supplier for specific recommendations. Equipment Cleaning: Following applications, thoroughly rinse seed treatment equipment with water. Do not contaminate water by disposal of equipment washwater or rinsate. Crop RANCONA CTS Rate (fl. oz.) per 100 lb.
